OC enrolment

The Opportunity Class program at Neutral Bay Public School is for academically gifted students in Years 5 and 6. The class provides a forum in which students can learn to be creative and critical thinkers. In this stimulating learning environment, students are encouraged to excel in all aspects of academic, social, sporting and artistic endeavour. They develop positive relationships with like-minded peers and learn alongside others of similar ability. The school has one Opportunity class in Year 5 and one in Year 6.

Entry to the class is via assessment through the Department of Education’s High Performing Students Unit, Sydney. Students are required to complete an exam while in Year 4.
